Demand for low-carbon aluminium has grown in recent years, and Argus has launched a new assessment for a low-carbon upcharge in Europe to track this still-nascent market. But significant challenges remain for the market to generate sustained liquidity and it may require the introduction of more regulation before it can evolve further.
Ronan Murphy, Editor of Argus Non-Ferrous Markets, spoke to Argus’ Associate Editor and senior aluminium expert Jethro Wookey to explore where the low-carbon aluminium market is now, where it may go, and how primary aluminium producers are also seeking to increase sustainability of their product through increased use of scrap metal.
Key topics covered in the podcast:
- Growth in demand for low-carbon aluminium and the barriers in place to more rapid uptake
- Wil the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) drive greater liquidity in the European low-carbon aluminium market from 2026?
- Is the market increasing scrap consumption and can processing capacity keep up with demand?
